Rabbit is the trickster figure in many Southeastern Indian tribes. The Rabbit Trickster is generally a light-hearted character
who does not engage in serious wrongdoing and features in many children's stories; however, like most tricksters, he is
prone to humorously inappropriate behavior, particularly gluttony, carelessness, and an overinflated ego.
In the folklore of some Southeastern tribes, it was Rabbit who stole fire and brought it to the people.
